I just inexplicably thought...
She looked embarrassed, glared at the man, and snapped at him, "What are you looking at?"
"I've finished drinking and I'm going to sleep. You can leave now."
This man has no sense of boundaries at all; he kept staring at her even after she was lying in bed.
Is she really that pretty?
Su Yuxi was still unaware of the seriousness of the situation. She scratched her bottom uncomfortably and wrapped herself tightly in the blanket, but the man next to her was still watching her.
"Go away, go away..." she said again, urging them to leave.
Fu Huaijin seemed not to hear, his eyes lowered, his long, curled eyelashes fluttering as he continued to carefully examine her complexion. Only after confirming that she was alright did he put the bowl aside and glance at his watch: "It's five o'clock."
It's telling you: It's time for you to go to work.
Su Yuxi's expression froze for a few seconds, clearly remembering the ten million yuan salary.
But soon her mind was overwhelmed by an irresistible drowsiness, her vision blurred, and her eyelids began to droop. This time, she really wanted to sleep: "I'm not feeling well today, can I take the day off?"
Fu Huaijin's answer was naturally: "No."
There's no such thing as asking for leave with him.
Su Yuxi: "..."
No wonder some people say that bosses all have cold hearts, and their eyes always hide the desire to exploit the working people.
She was already feeling so unwell, yet they were still waiting for her to go to work.
She gave a soft snort, rolled up the blanket and covered her head, not wanting to talk to anyone.
"Then you can stay here." Anyway, as long as we're together, staying there doesn't matter.
Fu Huaijin stared at her intently for a long while, then finally said two words in a low voice: "Okay."
He looked around the room, his gaze inadvertently landing on a small sofa nearby. He strode over, found himself a spot, and picked up his phone to immerse himself in his work.
Until the precise six o'clock chime rang, the deep, heavy sound broke the silence, and the air seemed to subtly change.
Fu Huaijin's muscles began to tense uncontrollably. He gripped his expensive phone tightly in his hand. A familiar pain shot through him, and he jumped up and strode to Su Yuxi's bedside.
At that moment, all he could see was the figure on the bed.
Her eyes were closed, her expression serene, and her fair profile revealed a purity untouched by the world, making her appear so peaceful and beautiful in this chaotic world.
He couldn't bear to wake her, so he bent his noble back, slowly knelt on one knee, took her exposed hand, and gently wrapped it in his large palm.
Her hands were small, with skin as delicate as cream. Touching them brought a gentle warmth that instantly dispelled the chill that surrounded him, making him want to hold her hands firmly in his own.
Perhaps the medicine he had just taken also helped. Apart from the initial surge and agitation in his blood, he gradually felt less pain. Unlike before, he could feel that his bloodline and that violent gene had been resolved.
No... it's fusion...
Chu Juan had only been lying in bed for half an hour, and sleepiness was like a thick fog enveloping his brain. But when he heard the six o'clock bell ring, he seemed to react instinctively and struggled to get out of bed. He haphazardly pressed his throbbing head a few times and got up to check on Fu Huaijin's condition.
He staggered downstairs but didn't find the two of them. He then went to check Fu Huaijin's room, but it was still empty. Finally, he found them in Su Yuxi's room.
The moment the door was pushed open, what was seen was Fu Huaijin's originally upright and pine-like figure, but now he was kneeling on one knee, his tall figure stretched out in the soft sunset.
He held one of the woman's hands tightly in both of his, placing her hand on her forehead, looking very devout, as if he were making a solemn prayer.
For the first time, Chu Juan witnessed Fu Huaijin pass through six o'clock without any pain or struggle.
I had intended to check if today's medication had worked, but judging from the current results, there's no need to bother them anymore.
After gazing at the two for three minutes, a relaxed smile appeared in his eyes, and he gently closed the door again.
Half an hour after Chu Juan came out, Fu Huaijin also came down.
He was eating in silence when he exchanged a glance with Fu Huaijin and immediately understood what was going on.
Fu Huaijin turned around, walked to the coffee table, sat down, and casually took a cigarette from the cigarette case under the table, putting it in his mouth.
By the time Chu Juan finished eating and came over, he had already smoked his third cigarette.
Chu Juan slowly walked up to him, staring at him as he exhaled smoke. His brows furrowed tightly. Ignoring whether he would be angry, he snatched the cigarette from his hand and forcefully stubbed it out in the ashtray, completely extinguishing the faint spark.
"Smoking is bad for your health." Although your body is incredibly strong at night, you should still cherish it and not squander it just because you think you are powerful.
Fu Huaijin stared blankly at his empty fingertips for a moment, until a glass of warm water was placed in his hand, bringing him back to his senses.
Her disapproving gaze fell on the man sitting opposite her.
Chu Juan nonchalantly took out a cigarette from the pack, lit it right in front of him, and the sparks flew. He took a deep drag and exhaled the smoke, which drifted away in the air. His movements were fluid and natural, without the slightest hint of embarrassment.
Seeing Fu Huaijin's displeased look, he only said one word: "Tired".
It's not unusual for him to smoke a few cigarettes after several sleepless nights.
What could Fu Huaijin say? Some people only allow soldiers to set fires but forbid ordinary people from lighting lamps. He could only swallow a few mouthfuls of water.
"What are your plans for next?" Chu Juan looked weary. Besides worrying about Fu Huaijin's condition, he also had to deal with some things that couldn't be brought to light. Today, he caught another traitorous rat at the base.
Unlike the other personnel in important positions, he was just an unknown technician working at the bottom of the base.
Because of his low position and extremely low profile, he was someone who would go unnoticed even in public. In addition, he was very good at concealing his information transmission, and did not reveal a single clue.
If Liu Ying hadn't come to question them as soon as she got the news, they really wouldn't have been able to track them down.
For the past six months, they have been like weavers in the dark, silently spreading strings of data that are hard to distinguish between true and false. Only exaggerated data can make them suspicious in the dark.
They desperately wanted precise data, which would entice people to investigate and make it easier for them to pinpoint all the traitors. Now they were just waiting for the final moment to close the net.
Unfortunately, they haven't made a move yet, perhaps because they still have some concerns.
Or they could throw out bait.
And the best bait is Fu Huaijin.
Only when they see with their own eyes that Fu Huaijin is not only not dead, but his body is getting stronger day by day, even surpassing that of ordinary humans, will they completely believe it.
